Thats almost the full collection, about another 20 at moms house exluding ice fishing :shock: .....Jig head and I find a lot of helpful information in most of these books.I have thought about trying to sell the batch, but looking back into some of the older issues bring back lots of tips and tricks that can help me on the water.I love my mags :P

between hunting and fishing mags I have have well over 100. lots of them in rough shape and I have lost more than I like to remember. it seems all the good mags i had are gone. I had 1 in particular called bassin ontario or something along that line. must have been thrown out.

I think we've got about 15 or so. Used to be more, but I house-cleaned many old issues. Things can get a little out of control with spillover in this house, between a broad spectrum of magazine titles coming in, including kids' titles. I won't even get into the toy situation here... :shock:

I like to pass the older magazines on to people, rather than just toss them out.

Depending on the day I have way to many or not enough :lol:.

Check out this Special Limited Edition Cabela’s hardcopy catalog I received yesterday. I didn't know I bought that much stuff :lol:. A card came with it and said they sent out a lot of them to their customers. I’ve never seen a hardcopy catalog like this one. Jammed packed with what seems like every item they carry. On days like today, I just want too set by the fire and drool over the catalog :lol: .

I have 300 filed (more important ones) and probably that many in piles. I think we just got rid of a bunch of old ones.

I have all the entire Muskie Hunter Magazine collection, all of the Esox Anglers, a bunch of Muskie magazines, and then assorted Infishermen, and lots of Canadian mags.

I never run out of reading material for the bathroom.
